Editing Trajann Valoris (section)

===Codex Biography===

Valoris took over the post of Captain-General when his predecessor Andros Launceddre fell at the Battle of the Black Pyre. Many claim that he's the greatest warrior ever to hold the position since the Horus Heresy (as a testament to this during the Demonic invasion of Terra with the opening of the great rift it was claimed he took down a Bloodthirster single-handedly during the midst of the fighting. Something few beyond Primarchs could accomplish). In his first decade of service alone, he ran '''two''' successful Blood Games, and this record remains unbroken in the present day. During his tenure among the [[Allarus Custodian]]s he participated in the destruction of the [[Space Hulk]] ''Mournful Siren'' and the defeat of the [[Genestealer Cult]] of the Emperor's Writhing Shadow, earning many names for his deeds.

Valoris has been noted to be unusually proactive, preferring a strategy of so-called "active defense"; in his years of service he has often led pre-emptive strikes, and at the same time cultivated networks of informants and agents across Segmentum Solar and beyond to keep him abreast of emergent threats. He is aware of his own aggressiveness however, and tries to temper it by doing as much research and preparation as possible before committing to an attack, so that none of his comrades lives would be needlessly lost as a result.
